Default Genesis Diff Oil

What wieght of oil does anybody recommend for the front end diff? It is pulling with the front too much and do not want to put the center diff lock in.
Thanks

Changing the front oil wont change that. I would start in the center with 300k-500k oil and if you still want to do the front and rear it depends on you. I'm going to try 80 in the front, 500 in the center and 90 in the rear. I'm almost certain that's the #'s I've seen from a few bashers out there. I might put something heavier in the rear but I'm unsure as of yet. Any way...start in the center so the rear wheels get more power and go from there. Don't forget to heat the screws so you don't stripe them out.

No problem. With way to much reading you'll find other post about the diff oils. Are you trying to race, bash or both?

Yes- thicken up the center if you don't want so much front wheel spin

I went with 50,000 in the center diff, 10,000 in the rear and 5,000 in the front. I will post once I give it a try, I am waiting on new A-Arms broke one the other day so have had plenty of time to prepare. Thanks again for all info.

The combination of 50,000 in center diff and 5,000 in front diff and 10,000 in rear diff worked great for what I was looking for. I am more into to bashing around so forth. It likes to pull wheelies quite easliy.
